"The gate broke and A-009 escaped."
"Repeat, the gate breaks, and A-009 escapes."
On the night when the alarm sounded, some people in Dateng City were destined to not be able to sleep peacefully.
Wei Shu stared at the dozens of flashing screens in the emergency conference room, his expression tense, and the emergency report tightly clenched in his hand was pinched into layers of wrinkles.
Veins bulged on his forehead, and he pressed his fists heavily against the console, unable to understand: "How could the gate be breached? There are so many guards in the prison, how did A-009 escape?"
"It had only been three days since Dateng City took over A-009, and there was an escape incident. The emergency report said that the broken gate was a network problem in the Deep Sea... But how could there be a problem in the Deep Sea?"
Wei Shu turned his head and looked behind him: "In any case, it has escaped now. Ms. Nanjin, you are the commissioner responsible for escorting A-009. You should be very aware... of the dangers of this thing after it escapes, right? We need to get it as soon as possible. Take him into custody again!”
At the door of the conference room, there was a woman with long red hair, wearing a large black windbreaker, with her hands behind her head, twisting her long hair.
She did not respond to Wei Shu, but calmly stared at the flickering screens.
Dozens of staff members were each responsible for a screen, and each screen was cut into dozens of pieces. All surveillance from the gate to the containment city was called out, but no one noticed anything unusual... After the alarm that the gate was broken was heard, A-009 seemed to have evaporated. This surveillance network could capture the traces of a mosquito flying by, but it could not capture a single hair of A-009.
Nan Jin slowly coiled her long hair.
Her eyes became dark and lifeless, and at the same time, the light sources emitted by dozens of screens and hundreds of monitors suddenly became slow in her eyes.
It's not that A-009 really disappeared.
It does not have the ability to move instantaneously, but the speed is too fast, so fast that... these ordinary workers will not be able to capture the movement trajectory if they do not slow down.
Noticing the change in the light in Nan Jin's eyes, Wei Shu raised his hand solemnly and made a gesture to signal his operators to be quiet and not to disturb Nan Jin's observation.
The whole conference room was silent.
Finally, Nan Jin locked onto a screen. In the field of view that was slowed down nearly twenty times, the shadow of A-009 appeared, like a shadow shrouded by crows. Even if his eyes were stained, he would feel depressed.
The woman's eyes slowly moved from one screen to another, and at the same time, she carved a winding escape trajectory on the map in her mind.
While gazing, those dull pupils slowly shed two lines of clear tears.
"It last appeared on...Light Rail Line 13. The last section of the train was very long and it couldn't get off." The woman in the windbreaker looked at the time and said softly: "If you take a shortcut, you can stop it at the tunnel exit."
Wei Shu had already been waiting in front of the console in person. The moment he heard about Line 13, he immediately called up the monitoring of several main roads along the way, slowed down the speed, and saw the ghostly shadow like a ghost... Then Dao Shadow broke through the gate, escaped, and fled towards the suburbs of Dadeng City.
"You want to stop it, alone?" Wei Shu frowned, "Capturing a Class A fugitive is no small matter. I suggest you ask Mr. Shu directly for help."
"It's too late. The teacher is very busy... If you can guarantee backup, then I can handle this matter." Nan Jin looked at Wei Shu and asked coldly: "What's more, can you wait? Miss this opportunity , the next lock-up...but I don’t know when it will be.”
This woman is very perceptive.
Wei Shu looked gloomy, and the other party was right... This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that could not be let go easily.
And it seems that A-009 is determined to escape from Dateng. After tonight, trying to hunt him down will be like finding a needle in a haystack.
"Then... take action! As long as you can stop A-009, I will ensure sufficient backup!"
Wei Shu made up his mind and felt a little relieved at the same time. Fortunately, it was Line 13... At this time, no one would take this kind of light rail heading to remote suburbs.
"Wait...what is that?"
"enlarge."
"Zoom in again."
Wei Shu suddenly saw a flying black dot appear in the last surveillance line of sight.
At the same time, a string of black lines also appeared on his head... After the surveillance image was enlarged, you could vaguely see a boy about seventeen or eighteen years old running all the way, rushing before the light rail was closed. Boarded the last train that was supposed to leave.
Which unlucky guy is this?
"..." Wei Shu looked at Nan Jin: "Can we still be saved?"
The woman in the trench coat was silent.
"Line 13 will go through a very long tunnel. He will spend at least... 20 minutes with A-009." Nan Jin lowered his head and looked at his watch and said a cold joke without expression, "When I get there , it should be warm."
Wei Shu's expression was complicated. He was an insider who had read the files and knew exactly what it meant to spend 20 minutes with A-009.
If it's still warm, it's pretty good.
A moment of silence for this young man.
Immediately afterwards, he calmed down, took a deep breath, and put these distracting thoughts behind him. The most important thing now was to direct the subsequent containment work. He chose to make a desperate move. There was no way out. A-009 must be successfully contained tonight, so Only in this way can losses be minimized...
"Link to 'Deep Sea', open permission, I need assistance."
Wei Shu's voice echoed in the control room.
When the word "deep sea" was mentioned, the person in charge's eyes couldn't help but become solemn. The emergency report submitted by the rear believed that the cause of A-009's escape was an error in the operation of the deep sea.
Wei Shu really couldn't believe this report at all.
Because of the "Deep Sea", this huge network covering the entire Eastern Continent has been operating closely and comprehensively for more than 20 years. In the past millions of event calculations, all tasks have been completed perfectly without a single error... And This time, he was willing to believe that it was a false alarm by the staff. In fact, there were always false alarms every year, and it was always later proven to be a human error.
The big screen dimmed, and there was a waiting image of layers of waves washing over each other. The loading special effect in the lower right corner was very retro. If you look carefully, you will find that it is a blurry girl made of mosaic, stepping on the beach. The grains of sand ran in place.
Wei Shu tapped his fingers and waited patiently.
Finally, the room was filled with light, and a clear, melodious and gentle voice sounded in the control room.
"The Deep Sea has been linked... Serial number V349708069527, I am happy to serve you."
…
…
The lights are dim.
The train bumps.
This light rail is a long snake crashing into the end of the broken night.
Gu Shen was in the snake's belly, and he saw the tall lady's eyes. They were completely different from those of a normal person. There were two snake-like vertical pupils that were emitting red light and were as slender as swords.
The lady's voice echoed in the empty carriage of the light rail.
"Yeah...obviously, you touched."
Gu Shen's answer came immediately after. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead and his voice was trembling, but his consciousness at this moment was as clear as ever.
Touch the ruler with one hand and grasp the sharp knife with the other.
The tall woman in the tall dress was stunned and seemed a little disappointed.
She paused for a moment and continued to ask politely: "Then...why?"
In the dim light, Gu Shen stared closely at the blood-stained old newspaper in front of his wife's knees. He tried to read the contents of the newspaper, but the light was too dim and he could not see clearly.
Gu Shen chuckled softly and said: "Madam... with all due respect, not everything can be perfectly embodied, but when we touch a larger field, we will only have more than we imagined. There is infinity between 3 and 4.”
The red light in the snake-shaped pupils of the tall woman in the dress flickered faintly.
She moved her lips and seemed to smile.
Seeing this smile, Gu Shen only felt creepy. He kept a relatively safe distance and moved forward slowly. The oppressive feeling in his heart has not dissipated yet.
He had no doubt that if he said a wrong sentence, or even a single word... it would trigger the condition for the woman in the dress to draw her sword.
So he could only remain silent, and in the tranquility of silence, he slowly approached the woman.
That newspaper is the only information medium through which I can understand the other party. If I could see it, it might be helpful.
But the lady just uttered two words: "Continue."
"...π is an infinite non-cyclic constant, which means that it has endless precision, and on a ruler with limited precision, there is no point that can mark π."
Gu Shen spoke, trying to steady the other person, and at the same time, he slowly squatted down, raised his head in the cramped space, and looked up at the tall woman. This sentence seemed to offend the other person. The smile on the woman's lips disappeared instantly, and her eyes became like... As cold as a snake.
She held the boning knife, and the entire light rail was filled with bone-chilling wind.
It was at this moment that Gu Shen saw the newspaper trembling in the wind, and the scarlet words... It was a series of numerical symbols, and proof formulas.
Something looks familiar.
Where has he seen it?
The brain is working like crazy.
Gu Shen recalled the first time he saw the woman. At that time, she was reading a newspaper...with a mesmerized expression.
It turns out, that’s how it is.
"But even so, I still firmly believe that between 3 and 4, we can touch π."
Gu Shen raised his head, his voice a little hoarse.
"Madam... As for the reason, you and I both know it, don't we?"
"Alan Turing."
When Gu Shen read out this name, Mrs. Gao Da's body was obviously shaken.
She stared at Gu Shen in surprise.
Yes, Gu Shen found the "answer"... Madam allowed herself to continue speaking, not because she wanted to hear the proof process, but because she wanted to find a common ambition.
The densely packed mathematical symbols and proof formulas on that newspaper pointed to the final point, which was exactly the object that Mrs. Gao Da worshiped with fanaticism in her eyes.
All she wanted to hear was this person's name.
Alan Turing.
Few people know that the famous man who created the deep-sea network is also a mathematician. In the field of mathematics, π is within the set of 3 and 4 and can be easily touched.
In the field of physics, π is like a non-existent fictitious number that cannot be touched, let alone be referred to by a scale.
After the name was spoken.
The cold wind of the light rail suddenly died out.
The flashing lights seemed to go out.
The lady's expression softened, and she stretched out a hand as if to help Gu Shen up, but a ruler slipped out of her sleeve, which was the silver ruler she had drawn earlier.
Gu Shen was stunned and subconsciously reached out to take the ruler.
next moment--
Two people connected by a ruler separate.
The light rail exits the tunnel.
The whimpering wind poured down, and the feeling of weightlessness suddenly came over. Gu Shen was thrown away uncontrollably, holding the ruler, and fell heavily to the ground.
"Boom!"
Gu Shen's expression changed, and he heard a muffled sound, as if something heavy fell on the light rail car, and a pair of visible footprints were left above his head——
Thousands of flames and electric arcs burst out.
Accompanied by a harsh and sharp roar, a long knife penetrated the iron sheet of the carriage diagonally, and stabbed into the shoulder of the tall woman in a formal dress with great precision, like a nail, nailing the tall woman to the side of the carriage.
Immediately afterwards, the second knife was inserted into the top of the carriage. The blade rotated like cutting paper. A large piece of iron sheet on the top of the carriage fell off, and a red-haired woman wearing a large trench coat landed suddenly on the iron sheet.
Nan Jin fell right in front of Gu Shen.
She narrowed her eyes, glanced back at the young man sitting behind her with his arms around his clothes, and reported calmly.
"Wei Shu...that unfortunate guy is still alive."
Unlucky guy, this is not a bad name, at least it's appropriate... Gu Shen bared his teeth and hugged the iron railing to steady himself. The pain just now was so painful that his butt seemed to have broken into eight pieces.
The feeling all over my body now, apart from pain, is dizziness.
He carefully took the ruler into his arms and hid it on the inside of his clothes. When he touched the ruler, it felt unexpectedly cool and made him feel extra awake.
The woman in black dress who was nailed to the side of the carriage was extremely angry at this moment. She stretched out a hand and grasped the long knife that Nan Jin had nailed into her body, trying to pull it out.
"laugh--"
The moment her five fingers touched the long knife, the blade burst into flames and the bright silver light illuminated the entire carriage!
The lady screamed in pain and had to let go of her palms.
The silver blade was burning with blazing light, but the light was quickly fading——
Obviously time is limited.
But Nan Jin did not take action at this time, but chose to wait.
She was waiting for Wei Shu's instructions.
Electricity rustles.
"Move the battle location and rescue this young man named 'Gu Shen' first."
Wei Shu's voice sounded, every word without emotion:
"Don't fight A-009 on the train. This is the optimal solution given by Deep Sea."
